Juicy, rounded Merlot with a spicy nose, sweet with cinnamon and freshened by liquorice and a pleasant mouthful of red and black berries.
This lighter and more elegant style of Merlot is ideal with more delicate game dishes or with lamb.
"Given the outstanding quality of Thelema's Reserve bottling, it's no surprise that the regular Merlot is so good. Made with clones 343 and 192 (the Italian one), this is a leafy, graceful, polished delight, with layers of mint and tomato leaf and a core of supple plum and red berry fruit. "
